ST. JOHN’S CE PRIMARY SCHOOL RESULTS 2019

The information below compares the attainment of our pupils with local authority and national averages.  We are delighted with the very good results across the school.  They are a tribute to the children and all the staff.

Early Years Foundation Stage

84% of pupils in Reception attained a Good Level of Development against the Early Years framework.  This is above the national average of 72%.

A Good Level of Development is defined as children working at the expected standard or exceeding the expected standard in the key areas of literacy, maths, physical development, communication and language and personal, social and emotional development. 

Year One Phonic Screening

90% of pupils in Year One attained the expected standard in the Phonic Screening test. National was 82%.

Key Stage One

At the end of KS1 (Yr2), teachers are required to assess each child in the areas of reading, writing, maths and science.  National Curriculum assessment tests are used to support teachers’ judgements.

St. John’s performance in KS1 was above the national average in every subject area.  Attainment was in line or slightly above with our local authority in most areas.

Working Towards – working towards the expected standard for their age

Expected Standard – Working at the expected standard for a child at the end of Year 2

Greater Depth – Working at greater depth within the expected standard, with a strong understanding of the curriculum

Key Stage Two

The results of the SATs (tests) are reported using a scaled score, where a score of 100 represents the expected standard.  The highest possible score is 120 and the lowest is 80. 

Children are awarded one of the following Teacher Assessment judgements in writing: 

Working Towards – working towards the expected standard for their age

Expected Standard - Working at the expected standard for their age

Greater Depth - Working at greater depth within the expected standard and has a strong understanding of the curriculum

In addition to these measures and in line with requirements, we have reported the percentage of children achieving a High Standard.  Children with a scaled score of 110 and above are included in this group.

Year 6 pupils were assessed in reading, writing, grammar, punctuation and spelling, maths and science.  For further information, please see the Information for parents KS2 leaflet from the Standards and Testing Agency.

St. John’s pupils performed  above the national average in all subject areas (with the exception of greater depth writing).  National averages are in brackets. Attainment was also above local authority averages in each area (with the exception of Greater Depth in writing).
